If there is one thing that Israel does better than anyone else, it's SPYING, collecting intelligence and exerting iron-fist control over their territory.  This former IDF Commander exposes the FACT that "there is no way the IDF wasn't aware of what was going to happen and in FACT were/are complicit in everything that is going on right now.

Polling shows strong global opposition to Israel’s illegal 50-year occupation of Palestinian land, and mounting outrage over Israel’s ongoing slaughter of unarmed Palestinian civilians who are fighting for their rights. Nevertheless, public sympathy and support for Israel within the US continues to hold strong. The Occupation of the American Mind zeroes in on this critical exception, breaking down the devastatingly effective public relations war that Israel and right-wing pro-Israel advocacy groups have been waging for decades in the US. Narrated by Roger Waters and featuring leading observers of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, the film explores how the Israeli government, the US government, and the pro-Israel lobby have joined forces, often with very different motives and interests, to shape American media coverage of the conflict in Israel’s favor. The result is a stunning look at how — and why — American media coverage of the conflict regularly minimizes the occupation, vilifies critics of Israeli policy, and dehumanizes the Palestinian people.

For the 50th Anniversary of the USS Liberty attack by Israel, RT decided to go on the attack. On this episode, in order to do so, they naturally invite Ken O'Keefe to tell it how it is. However, this is all very curious.

Norman Finkelstein, Scholar & Author of “Gaza: An Inquest Into Its Martyrdom,” discusses Gaza, its people, and its future.

We speak to famed political scientist Norman Finkelstein about the collusion of human rights organizations as warplanes from Israel - armed by Britain - again bomb Gaza.

This is a very good and brief (10 minuites) summary of the entire history of the Jewish/Palestinian conflict.  The conflict is really only 100 years old.

Editors Note: Some may wonder why articles like this are posted on this site.  Well, quite simple.  Israel is a foreign country and wields iron fist influence over our representatives and will utterly ruin the career of anyone who doesn't do what they want.  It is one of the main reasons our government is such a swamp crap hole.  Our government isn't our government.  It belongs to Israel.  It uses our government and resources to do much of it's dirty work PLUS it extorts BILLIONS in foreign aid.

A decade ago in 2007 John J. Mearsheimer, the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science and codirector of the Program on International Security Policy at the University of Chicago, and Stephen M. Walt, the Robert and Renee Belfer Professor of International Affairs at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University and Academic Dean of the Kennedy School from 2002-2006, published The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy. The publisher was the prestigious publishing house, Farrar, Straus and Giroux. The authors made a convincing case that Israel operating through its American lobbies, which are not registered as foreign agents, succeeds in using US foreign policy in Israel’s interests. The authors conclude that the use of US foreign policy in Israel’s interests is damaging to both America’s national interests and to Israel’s long-term security.

Many were pleased that two distinguished experts had breached a taboo issue. But the Israel Lobby was not among them. Instantly, the authors and the book were denounced as anti-semitic. The demonstration that Israel had influence was misrepresented as the claim that Israel controlled the US government. The authors were denounced for their “extremism” which some alleged could result in a new holocaust.

Other critics took a different approach and claimed that there was no difference between Israeli and US interests and that anything that served Israel also served America. Some evangelicals added: “and also serves God.”

The authors remained dispassionate throughout the long controversy and stuck to their point that Israel’s influence on US foreign policy was not in the interest of either country.

If we think of a spectrum with influence at one end shading into control at the other, in the decade since The Israel Lobby was published Israel has moved closer to the control end of the spectrum. For example, we learn from the Israeli newspaper Haaretz that a bill in the US House of Representatives “would require U.S. to consult with Israel before selling arms in Mideast” HAARETZ .

Last month the House of Representatives unanimously passed HR 672 titled “Combating European Anti-Semitism Act of 2017.” Former CIA official Philip Giraldi reports that “the bill requires the State Department to monitor what European nations and their police forces are doing about anti-Semitism.” In other words, the bill makes Washington an enforcer over Europe for Israel. There is a companion bill in the US Senate GLOBAL RESEARCH .

And then there is S. 722 backed by AIPAC, titled “An act to provide congressional review and to counter Iranian and Russian aggression.” Iranian and Russian “aggression” exist by assertion, not by fact. The bill more or less makes it impossible for President Trump to remove the sanctions and normalize relations.

And there is much more since 2007. In 2010 the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported Netanyahu’s boast that America was a country easy for him to manipulate HAARETZ. In 2015 Congress without consulting President Obama invited Netanyahu to address Congress on the appropriate US foreign policy toward Iran. Congress is accustomed to grovelling at Israeli feet. Every year Congress attends AIPAC’s meeting and pays homage to its liege lord. One would think that the sight of the legislative body affirming its allegiance to Israel would raise questions about what country Congress represents.

If Mearsheimer and Walt have the strength, the time is ripe for a second edition of The Israel Lobby.

Editor's Note:  Guess why she's an EX-Congresswoman?

This video explains how the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) continued mandatory demands that all U.S. Congressional Representatives pledge: that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, to Israel’s military superiority and that they vote for funding of Israel. Ms. Cynthia McKinney affirms that the Jewish Anti-defamation League assisted in the political tactic of redistricting, which caused her to lose her re-election bid to Congress.

This is the truth about what the Jews have done to the Palestinian people.  The world just turns a blind eye to the utterly ruthless Palestinian Holocaust perpetrated by Israel. Decades of illegal collective punishment to wipe Palestinians off the face of the earth and the world just lets them do it with impunity.  Why?  Because it is claimed Jews are the chosen people?  I don't believe for one second that God approves of any of this.  It's pure evil.
